Asian Peanut Slaw

Skip the mayonnaise and make this flavorful Asian peanut slaw! Unlike ordinary coleslaw recipes, this version packs in some protein, is relatively low in fat, and lets fruit and vegetables be the star of the show. It’s great for family cookouts or summer potlucks, where peanut allergies aren’t a concern. And if you need a healthy, quick main dish, simply top it with your favorite protein. The ingredients are a good fit for chicken, edamame, tofu or tempeh.

Special Diet Notes: Asian Peanut Slaw

For gluten-free Asian peanut slaw, you might actually be able to locate some gluten-free chow mein noodles. But if not, you can simply omit the chow mein noodles, increase the peanuts, or add sliced almonds.
